Heavy fog Monday morning could cause headaches from motorists in some spots around Houston.

A Dense Fog Advisory is in effect for the region through 10 a.m., according to the National Weather Service. Forecasters said the worst foggy conditions appear to be south of Interstate 10, though some spots north of Houston also report thick fog.

Coastal areas near Angelton reported visibility at about a quarter of a mile, and Galveston has been shrouded with sea fog, forecasters added.

Bush Intercontinental Airport reported zero visibility at about 6:30 a.m. while Hobby Airport has been socked in with fog, dropping visibility down to between about a quarter of a mile and a mile much of the morning. However, no significant flight delays have been reported at the airports.

Forecasters said motorists need to be cautious on the roadways.

"Wherever you're traveling you need to be careful," said Brian Haines, a weather service meteorologist.
